Legendary Traveler: By Earning Progress Points I will Become Supreme!

Knock Knock

Hearing two soft knocks at the door, Aoni calmly got up from the projector and headed out of the room to answer it.

When he did, two beautiful elven women greeted him alongside a gaggle of small children.

"Good evening, Milord," Milandrith, one of the two teachers, said with an adoring smile.

"Mooby timeee!" shouted one kid, a little boy who triumphantly held up a bedroll before rushing into the Manor.

This action spurred many of the other kids to join in, and Aoni stepped aside and shook his head.

"Children! No running in the Lord's Home!" the second of the two women chided before bowing in greeting and rushing in after them.

"Sigh, I swear they grow more hyperactive each time we come over," Milandrith claimed while massaging her temples.

"Eh, kids will be kids, Milly; besides, aren't you supposed to be the fun teacher and Laylitn the stern one?" Aoni teased while guiding the girl, who was a head shorter and looked to be around the same age as him.

"Milord, you jest, also, how many times have I asked you not to call me that in public?" The elven woman said while tugging at her nightdress, wearing a faint blush on her cheeks.

"Hahhh, who told you to be so fun to tease?"

| The Host Still sucks at flirting |

'FUCK OFF! SHE'S TOTALLY HOT, AND I CAN'T HELP IT; I MEAN, LOOK AT HER! HOURGLASS BODY, NICE TITS, A PALMABLE ASS, TSSSS, HOTTTTT!'

| And there's the Perverted tendencies; I remember the days when the Host was a simple-minded boy who didn't think with his lower head |

'…'

"Is everything alright, milord?" Noticing that Aoni was staring off into space with a twitching eye, Milly asked, thinking that maybe she had done something wrong.

"Ah, it's nothing, I was just trying to figure out which of the snacks the kids would eat up first and whether or not we should sneak some out for the adults." Coming up with something on the fly, Aoni was extra careful not to look anywhere that could be considered "Disrespectful."

"Oh, that is indeed quite a conundrum; well, the kids generally go after sweets first, so maybe setting aside a few pieces of cake or something like that would be best."

'Damn, she's so cute…' watching Milly's face scrunch up like a small rabbit, Aoni couldn't help himself and nearly reached out to squish her cheeks when the AN flew directly in his line of sight, dampening his mood.

| The Host would do well to remember that although Summon: Milandrith appears to be in her teenage years, she is, in fact, old enough to be the Host's great-grandmother |

| It also should be noted that apart from the age factor, since she is connected to the Host through a LoS, it would be irresponsible and immoral to "make her yours." |

'Yeah-yeah, I fucking know, but that doesn't mean I can't enjoy the scenery now and then; I mean, although her nightgown is modest and even a bit prudish, it still fits her in all the right places,' Aoni grumbled to himself before guiding the elven woman into his Manor and allowing her free reign over wrangling the children.

After the first batch of kids, who his Village's two teachers were chaperoning, several clusters of parents brought along their children, and soon after, Malys and Terri showed up with a dozen pups.

"Brodder Fae's herrree!" Scampering into the Manor wearing a frilly pair of pink pjs, Faelar, guided by Ellewen, entered the Manor next, and by the time the little girl pounced into Aoni's arms and allowed him to carry her around, Char returned with the Duo-De-Floof.

---

"Wow, it's so lively now," Clara commented, holding a new bucket of popcorn in her arms. She even offered a handful to Faelar, something she often did with Cammy back home.

Wearing a faint smile, Aoni set Faelar down and sent her scampering off to play with Glacia and Blixt.

"To be honest, as much as I enjoy my quiet time, something like this is nice every now and then," Char added, joining her siblings at the back of the room by the projector while the kids settled down in their assigned spots on the mat.

"Color me surprised; the two twins of solitude enjoy family gatherings; coulda fooled me," Clara added with a small giggle.

"Hey, I never said I didn't want sleepovers and shit growing up, it's just I didn't have any friends…not that they would have passed Mom's background checks or anything like that."

"Ohhh, look at Aoni getting all defensive, hehe."

"Shut up, Clara; not all of us were as popular as you in school." Rolling his eyes, Aoni walked over to a sliding light switch and flashed it twice, a signal to the kids that it was time to calm down.

"Not popular, hah, tell that to the pretty elf girl standing in the corner with two slices of cake giving you "Bedroom eyes."

"COUGH!"

"Oh? Hmmm, Milly likes Ao?"

"Totes, look at her; she's been all fidgety since she got here, constantly tossing him looks of yearning, swoon, is my baby brother gonna make me an Auntie?"

"Umu, Ao gonna smash."

"HISS, will you two shut the hell up, there are kids around." Aoni snapped before bapping his sisters on the head.

"Teehee, baby brother seems to like older women too, TEACHERS to boot; that's interesting."

"Studious, checks out."

"Arg, I'll kick you both out on the streets if you don't knock it off! She's my summon; I would never lay a hand on her." Acting extremely defensive about the topic, Aoni couldn't help but shoot Milly a couple of glances, targeting two fairly decent-sized protrusions on her torso before snapping out of it and glaring at his sister.

"Maybe not a hand, but a pipe~ that's totallllly different," Clara added with a double eyebrow wiggle.

"GROOOSSSS hee-hee," Unable to contain her giggles, Char practically fell over while clutching her stomach at Clara's teasing.

---

"Okay, kids, tonight we have a double feature. As we agreed last time, the girls got first pick of what we watch, so hang in there, boys. I present to you, Magical Girl Selene and the Valkyrie Scouts!" Using his "Big Brother" voice, as Faelar liked to call it, Aoni gathered everyone's attention and flipped on the projector, beaming the image directly on the wall-sized sheet.

Instantly, the room was flooded with music as the devices, which acted like speakers, roared to life, creating a full and immersive soundtrack.

---

"Ohmygosh, I LOVE THIS SHOW!" Clara chirped before abandoning her siblings and rushing over to Glacia, who instantly became a body pillow.

"Was that on purpose?"

"Uh…would you believe me if I said it was a coincidence?" Aoni said while scratching the back of his head and ignoring the pointed stare coming from Char.

"Actually, yeah, I would; anyway, I'm going to give you and your favorite teacher some space..." Pausing, Char looked at Aoni from top to bottom, smirked, and added.

"Make good decisions,"

"Piss off already!"

"I'mmm going!" Leaving a trail of giggles in her wake, Aoni was finally alone, a subtle signal to Milly that she could come over now if she wanted to…

---

"Milo…Aoni, I brought some cake…" Creeping over stealthily and crouching beside him on the floor, Milly whispered softly…waiting for the okay she could sit down, which came a moment later when Aoni patted the mat.

Wearing a soft smile, Aoni knew that even this much could be taken the wrong way, as he was already allowing one of his summons to call him by his name instead of Milord in a semi-public setting.

Yet the moment her floral fragrance entered Aoni's nose, the combination of teenage hormones and sanity kind of left the building. Before he knew it, his hand was wrapped around her waist, pulling Milly into his body.

"Eep…A..Aoni, what are you do… do doing?"

"You don't like it?" He asked in a breathy whisper, causing Milly to go ridged in his embrace.

It was dark, the kids and adults were watching the screen, no one could see them, and Mr.Virgin was too far gone to think rationally.

"It... It's not that, I just…" Blushing brightly in a pale purple color, Milly stuttered, completely confused about how things were turning out because in her mind, although she thought Aoni to be quite attractive, he was not only of a different species but also her Lord, so something like this could be considered Taboo.

To be honest, if Aoni wanted her, she would never turn him down, but she was also worried about how the other residents of the Village would view him.

"Don't worry; I won't take things further than this. I just wanted some company back here." Reaching over and taking one of the plates from the Obvious maiden, Aoni offered up a smile and handed her a bottle of apple juice, which he knew to be her favorite of the drinks brought back from Terra.

"For now, just get comfortable; I don't mind if you lean on me or anything like that; after all, this is movie night, and it's all about enjoying time with each other like a family."

This last line broke down a few barriers between them, and she allowed herself to loosen up while still being hyper-aware of the way Aoni's fingers lightly drummed against her hip.
